Cyber day assignment

While reading the book Into The Wild, I like the idea of getting outside and in the nature and escaping reality for a while.  If I were to do a "Wilderness Retreat" I would most likely want to live the way Chris lived and the way some of the other people I've read about lived.  To me... it would be neat doing something like that.  Just not in as dangerous climates such as Alaska.  If I were going Into The Wild to escape from reality, I would probably escape because of school, all the drama with my friends, and just getting away from social media and all that stupid stuff.  I love nature and exploring which makes it even more fun to go and live out in the wilderness.  I know how to live out there, because I was once a boy scout.  I would probably want to only live out there for around 2-3 weeks.  After that I would get homesick.  I would really like to try it sometime in high school or college.  After that I will probably not want to do something like that.  I think Chris' adventure was definitely worth it for him.  He seems like he loves living with hardly any material item that humans have come up with, which is fine by me.  He also really wanted to get away from his family.  Going to Alaska with what he had, though might of been a little too risky... but that is all up to their mindset.
